BY the completion OF the bridge
over st. Mary's River, ut >ault Ste
Marie, which is now about finished,
shippers can send their grain to the
northward, crossing the international
bridge, aud on to 4 market or ship
ping port in Philadelphia, New York,
Boston on Montreal.
The new route of which this bridge
forms the important link connects
west Of Chicago with the Northern
Pacific and the Wisconsin system of
railroads, and to the eastward with
the canadian Pacific, the New York
Central and the Pennsylvania roads.
1t thus afford an outlet to the whole
grain region of the northwest and con
meets 1t with Liverpool by the short
est route yet built. The distance
from Superior to the seaboard by
this route is about 300 miles less than
by way of Chicago, ana the distance
frotA Yokohama to Liverpool 1000
miles shorter than by way of San
Francisco and New York.
And all this connected by railroad
bridge less than three-qnarters of a
mile long-Ra7road Record.
1t is said that trace has been
secured between Blaine Conklmg
and that if Blaine is nominated lie
will receive the hearty support o.
Conkling, who will again return to
public life through and election to
the United States Senate. rs the
story now told in Washington runs,
early in the last campaign Blaine
placed in the hands Of the National
committee a very frank and earnest
letter to Mr. Cohkling regretting past
differences and asking his support.
/ The letter meyer reached Mr., Conk-
ing having been suppressed by EIkins,
who thought to win New York with
ont Conkllng's aid, and would have
succeeded but for Buchard After
the election Mr.. Conkling's attention
was called to Mr. Blaine's letter, and
his reply WAS. Il am very sorry this
letter did not reach me-" Since the
meeting Of the club convention the
impression is general that Blaine mast
be renoninated, with Harrison Of Ind
lana for vice president, ond that on
thee issue represented by Mr.. Glove
land. they will carry New York, Ind
lana, Virginia and North Carolina.

The Oshkosh Times [Democraticl
says that the nomination of Lamar,
by President Cleveland to a position
on the supreme bench, is dishonor
to the bench, disgrace TO the bar, an
insult to the soldiers who followed the
flag, and a humiliation to every cit
izen who hates treason and loves his
country

The "Rebs" are getting there.
A bill has just been introduced in
congress the purport of which is to
make confederate soldiers eligible
to positions in the Union army.
The next step will be to put them on
the pension list; and why not? Isn't
the common ex-confedetate as much
entitled to pension as Lamar the
leader whom Cleveland pensions by
making him associate justice OF the
supreme court with salary of St0.-
900 per annum, Does it not begin to
look as though their boast that they
would gain through legislation what
they failed to secure by force of arms
is being rapidly secured. Men who
but few years ago were in armed re-
bellion against the government now
occupy the highest offices, at home
and abroad, in the gift of the nation.

Eek Secretary Daniel +. Man

Elk Secretary Daniel T. Man
ming died at 40 last Saturday after
noon. Mr.. Manning was born in Al
bany, New York, in 1881, learned the
printing trade and finally became
owner and editor Of the Albany Ar
gus. He was thorough politician but
not an Office seeker an | never held an
elective office He was probably the
most honorable Democrat in the cnun-
try, and it is to Dan. Manning that
Mr.. Cleveland owes his present politi-
cal position and honors, and it was
the herculane0n efforts Mr.. Manning
put forth to try to make something
out of nothing, that has terminated
fatally-another good man gone for
bad cause. Mr.. Cleveland made him
Secretary Of the Treasury which posi-
ton he held until February last, when
his resignation was finally accepted.

A New York court IS now en-
gagged in trying to unrayel peculiar
case. A short time ago the grand
jury considered the case Of two men
charged with burglary AMI, owing to
insufficient evidence, dismissed the
bill, AMI the secretary 50 stamped it,
but on the back instead Of the face of
the bill. The foreman of the grand
jury overlooked the endorsement and
signed the indictments. The two men
supposing an Indictment hid been
found against them, pleaded guilty
and were sentenced to the penitenti-
AIRY where they now are. The facts
of the case haye just come to light,
and the court is wrestling with the
question rs to how to get them out of
prison, as it it conceded they are
unlawfully detained.
